This is a very quick top, I traced off the pattern on the Saturday afternoon, and did my normal pattern adjustments:
- Round shoulder
- High Round back
- Front neck gaposis, including this adjsutment in the cowl pattern as well.
Back view
This fabric is very heavy, so I have added a ribbon across the back neck to try and keep in on my shoulders as it keeps falling off them.
I really like how they do the cowl with this pattern, you can't see where it joins, the bodice and I top stitched the neck/cowl seam so it would stay under.
This is a great top and I can see quite a few in my wardorbe.

The ribbon idea is pure genius! Thanks for sharing.
I can't see the first photo ..?? But from the back photo - the fabric looks great.... I'll try again later!
Great top and very interesting fabric. How was convention?
You've done a good job with pattern placement and I love the ribbon idea. Very smart work :)
The colour is different for you and I think it looks great. I really like the look of the top and think it suits you and am sure you will get a lot of wear. Well Done. LW
